If Trump is nominated he will win.

Political scientists say he does not have a realistic chance of winning.

But that was several months ago

I wouldn't be so sure, he's been able to sustain his huge lead for months now. He's even beating Rubio by a lot even in his own state of Florida

Tbh if he gets a nomination, that's a legit threat no matter how unlikely or stupid we think it is.

I don't really like any of the candidates. America is going to continue to suck

From RealClearPolitics (which aggregates + averages polls):

Hypothetical Matchups

Clinton 45.5%
Trump 44.3%

Sanders 43.7%
Trump 43.7%

Well at best this is a popular vote poll. The presidency isn't chosen this way (but I'm sure you know that)

It's why I never take polls like this seriously. It's how you do state by state

I wouldn't say ensure (Hilary can still be indicted, and Trump will go all out to destroy her reputation) but I think a Trump loss is highly likely. He's a really bad debater and is showing no signs of improvement. And the Dems have days worth of negative ad footage to run on him

If he gets the nomination I expect all moderate and liberal news outlets and third parties to have an all out media frenzy to destroy and annihilate him. We will not have this man run the USoA

Too late they already misquote him the very first time he opened his mouth & he just keeps getting more popular ever time the media slams him. He's winning no doubt

my thoughts as well. I would be very concerned if he gets remotely close to winning the presidency

If he wins the nomination he's a legitimate threat, no matter how you spin it.

With a long way to go, anything is possible. You need to keep an eye on the swing states and how they are polling, these national polls are worthless right now.

Depends on the Democratic nominee. If it's Hillary vs. Donald, Hillary will most likely win. If it's Bernie vs. Donald, I'm not so sure. With the more likely Democratic nominee being Hillary (especially since Bernie isn't even a Democrat), I'd lean towards yes to the question in the OP.
